Indian police officers try to detain Javid Mir (C), a leader of the moderate faction of the All Parties Hurriyat (Freedom) Conference (APHC), during a march in Srinagar July 13, 2015. Indian police on Monday stopped the supporters of APHC when they tried to march towards the Martyrs graveyard in Srinagar to mark Martyrs Day. On July 13, 1931, dozens of Kashmiris were gunned down by police during a protest against the Hindu Maharaja Hari Singh, then ruler of the Himalayan region. The Kashmir state government also observes the day as Martyrs Day and has declared July 13 a holiday. (Photo by Danish Ismail/Reuters)
